The meaning of tattoos
‘I have a colleague who keeps getting tattoos, she has many of them, over half of her body is covered, and she wants to get more. Why do people get tattoos?’ The archaic meaning of a tattoo is a seal, a sign of belonging to a certain kin, tribe, or a specific caste system. Tattoo’s entire story and evolutionary process help us conclude that for a person himself, as well as for those around him, tattoos represent a seal that, according to him, defines his specific social status.
